I've tried PocketCasts, BeyondPod, Podcast Addict, and many of the other popular podcast apps, but this one is the best in terms of functionality and features.

The most feature-rich podcast app around. One of the first apps I install on a new phone!

Love it!

DO NOT BUY/DOWNLOAD. I paid for this app based on reviews. This has always been difficult to use, non intuitive user interface, difficult to manage downloads, etc. I have always hated it, but kept quiet for years because money spent is money spent. But today was the last straw, now it can't save podcasts and with little instructions wants me to manipulate android settings that can impact my phone???? I'm out. I'd rather pay to use any other competing app. Save yourself and shop elsewhere.

Still one of the best podcast app out there but been having problems with lock screen and when you switch to other apps. Exhibits strange behaviour. The feature to subscribe to RSS feed is well hidden and tedious to use as you have to enter login details for every feed. Need a way to specify the details globally.

Worse than iTunes. I purchased based on the reviews. Unfortunately it has been a disaster. The sound quality is choppy. It fails to download the newest episodes of some podcasts yet downloads hundreds of episodes of others until it uses up all the memory. I deleted the unwanted episodes and it downloaded the same episodes again. In numerous feeds I see 10 month old episodes instead of the most recent. I'm tired of fighting it. I give up.

This used to be the best podcast app on the market. I haven't used it in months and downloaded it, and I can't even find the search function. I had to Google it, and even those instructions are in clear. If anyone knows how to just freaking find search let me know

Every podcast stops 20 to 30 minutes in and needs to be restarted due to an error. I've tried this on multiple services and phones. The interface is trash as well and I should have stuck with a free service.

This app is really good for keeping up with your favorite podcasts. Subscribe to the shows you like and then it can automatically new episodes as they come out. You can categorize and customize each podcast setting to your liking. Tip: create a custom playlist so you can download and sort your podcasts in the order you'd like to listen.

This podcast app is still great, though it's not updated frequently. The free version of the app (with an IAP option later) is no longer offered, so it's tough to recommend buying it blindly. I'll say that I've tried many, many alternatives, but this is still my "daily driver". Note: I use it for audio podcasts only, not RSS feeds or video sources.

The new UI is quite beautiful and I'm liking the constant updates. Still need a better looking widget though. April 2012- new amazing looking widget and icon. To this is what app perfection looks like.
